VaibhāṣikaSarvāstivāda-Vaibhāṣika (सर्वास्तिवाद-वैभाषिक) or simply Vaibhāṣika (वैभाषिक) is an ancient Buddhist tradition of Abhidharma (scholastic Buddhist philosophy), which was very influential in north India, especially Kashmir. In various texts, they referred to their tradition as Yuktavāda (the doctrine of logic), and another name for them was Hetuvāda. The Vaibhāṣika school was an influential subgroup of the larger Sarvāstivāda school.
Three marks of existenceIn Buddhism, the three marks of existence are three characteristics (Pali: tilakkhaṇa; Sanskrit: त्रिलक्षण trilakṣaṇa) of all existence and beings, namely aniccā (impermanence), dukkha (commonly translated as "suffering", "unsatisfactory," "unease"), and anattā (without a lasting essence). That humans are subject to delusion about the three marks, that this delusion results in suffering, and that removal of that delusion results in the end of dukkha, is a central theme in the Buddhist Four Noble Truths and Noble Eightfold Path.
Coproduction conditionnéeLa coproduction conditionnée, parfois appelée coproduction conditionnelle (pratītyasamutpāda प्रतीत्यसमुत्पाद, en sanskrit, prononcer /prətī:tyə səmŭtpα:də/ ; paṭiccasamuppāda पटिच्चसमुप्पाद, en pāḷi ; ) est le concept bouddhique de conditionnalité, de dépendance, de réciprocité. L'essentiel du concept réside dans la notion d'interdépendance. Ainsi, dans le bouddhisme, tous les phénomènes sont composés et interdépendants, que ce soient les objets physiques, les sensations, les perceptions, la pensée, la conscience.
Buddhism and psychologyBuddhism includes an analysis of human psychology, emotion, cognition, behavior and motivation along with therapeutic practices. Buddhist psychology is embedded within the greater Buddhist ethical and philosophical system, and its psychological terminology is colored by ethical overtones. Buddhist psychology has two therapeutic goals: the healthy and virtuous life of a householder (samacariya, "harmonious living") and the ultimate goal of nirvana, the total cessation of dissatisfaction and suffering (dukkha).
